Common Questions and Answers about Can i use metrogel while on my period

metrogel

which can and will throw off my PH and I use very light perfumes onmy chest and stomach area only. I douche once a month three days after myperiod goes off. When I was in my twenties I was douching three times a week when my GYN-o told me I was washing away my utereus lining and advised me to douche only once a month because our vagina naturally cleans itself...which it does. I shower twice a day, three times when my period is on and I don't sit down in the tub.

It wasn't the typical riba rash though it was 100x itchier and tomato red patches that I swear I could see my heart beat in.
The derm put me on a medication that helped a lot. I can't remember the exact name now and I tried to google it and came up with the stuff that is Flonase for your nose so I know thats not right. I'll write it down tonight when I get home. It took away the itch and got rid of the rash really quickly.

it went on like this until I got my period. The thing is, i got a fever the day before myperiod, and i felt horribly sick. The day after i started my period is when i noticed a papercut looking cut, small, above the top of where the lips start to seperate.
After this, the bumps started getting worse, and itching more. Then, they sortof went a way for a couple weeks.

you can also usemetrogelwhileon your period. if you get thick clumpy discharge a few days after using the metrogel - that is normal too. It's clumps of bacteria leaving your body.
you need to stop all self treatment except for the fem dophilus at this point. You also shouldn't wear panty shields or use tampons. both can lead to vaginitis.
this isn't a symptom of herpes to have discharge all the time.

I know skin issues especially on your face (or hands and feet as Jm had) can be very miserable, I wish you a quick recovery. I hope Jm weighs in on this and some of the others that have had this issue.
here's some info I found on it.
"The exact cause of rosacea is unknown. One theory is that it may result from oversensitive blood vessels in the face. Because rosacea causes increased warmth in the skin, bacteria may grow, causing the pimples and bumps.

but it was when i was on the pill. They had to switch me to the shot because everytime I would come close to having myperiodI would get a severe yeast infections due to tampons and scented soaps. It finally went away and I am back to normal now!! I am now back on the pill.

After the first dose, which I took the evening of the appoint (about 7 days after the sexual contact), I got like two big bumps on the labia majora. The next day I got six of them on the peripheral of my vagina. They all hurt. I have been having problems sitting, moving, laughing hard, coughing and walking. I don't get pain from the ones on the outside unless I touch them. This pain emanates from the vagina tract itself.

Too bad it doesn't contain sunscreen, but if it does everything it claims, I should be able to use it onmy scalp and then apply a sunscreen lotion or gel on top of it with no problems. We shall see...
Thanks again for your suggestions.

I did use it onmy face and most of the time it worked. Once I had the same reaction as you and had to use steroids briefly. It does seem to me that the problem became much worse during the tmes I was on treatment and is the worst it has ever been now that I am in prove 3.

The pain has diminished almost overnight.
She did not retest for the BV just yet since I am still onmyperiod but I have metrogel to continue treatment for that if needed.
I will be planning to go back in apprx 3 months for bloodwork. I'm not sure how much good that will do since it appears that many people's bloodwork comes back with false negs and false pos.

All of this seems timed with the fact that my primary increased my Armour Thyroid to 1 gr (I had been on a very low dose for one year). I am on no other meds. I don't know what else to do, or have checked. Can too much thyroid cause this? As I know it affects women's cycles and such. Any info you can give me will be helpful. I am having to resort to ice to the area as the burning is unbearable. There is only slight redness around the vagina.

And being that I had Trich for so long (since January) I have come to believe that I MUST be resistant to the Metronidazole if it's 97% effectiveness if having no effect on me even after two times. Also, myperiod is extremely late. I just don't know what to do. I am thinking of buying some Monistant and treating it as a yeast...maybe the discharge will stop then. I have to admit, this is depressing me. I just want to feel normal...again.

But no signs of anything, he seemed cleared and I did too. Then I got myperiod again and we made love on day 4 and 5. On day 6 he left for his country and that night I began to itch down there. The next night it was pretty bad and I started freaking out and reading up. Then I got to the doctor yesterday and he examined me and said it was herpes. He also did a swab for a gram stain. He said it showed -ve cocci which he told me was gonorrhea. I was baffled.

I am a small person and one of my (two) boyfriends is large so sex with him is often slightly painful. During our last sex (after myperiod) I had some bleeding and a foul odor. Since then (a week), I have more bleeding (but not a lot) and a mucousy discharge (no itching).

My question is - can this be PID due to the BV or even Gonorea - their can not be a possble chance of Chlamidya based on only the Oral that I received. And I did test negative for gonorea and NGU - Could I have had a fale negative on the urine test for gonorea? Are her symptoms just a coincidence you think?

Should I be continuing onmy Ketoconazole + Nizoral treatment? Are there any limitations to the period of time Icanuse these medications?
This problem has been the cause of embarrassment and I think I have lost a lot of my confidence in normal human interaction. Your help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Ive noticed also that after it clears up, it only comes back after sex!! I dont use condoms, or any scented stuff down there at all. I dont have a period anymore thank goodness because of the Novasure surgery, but I still get BV all the time!! Ive kindof learned to live with it and that really sucks!!

Hi, I am 21 years old and I have had a discharge since Ican remember ever getting myperiod for the first time(12years old)which was before I was sexually active. I have also had overy pain since I can remember. Mainly my right overy. It swells up every single night with pain. I have right pain where my overy is every single day since the age of 12.

Most of the time, doctors say they don't see any infection, but treat me any ways for BV because it does relieve my symptoms. I have been ononmetrogel, 2 times a week,vaginally. I have not be reliable on the 2 times a week and have come down with my symptoms 2 times. Now the doctor has put me on diflucan, 1, every week for 12 weeks. I'm curious to see if this works. I have had a total hyestrectomy a few yrs ago, so its not related to my cycles.

Hi Mike, I am trying to sum up what my endocrinologist said.
I told him, I wanted to usemy husbands glucose meter, and check my fasting, as well as the post prandial, reason being, that on the monthly CMP's, my glucose kept fluctuating between 102-104. That had started right after finishing tx, and I became concerned.
He discouraged post prandial testing, saying that there are no charts that correlate the carbohydrate intake with a 1 or 2 hour post prandial rise in glucose.

I had all those reactions listed above, the gross stuff oozing out, but now I am bleeding, like I am onmyperiod. I had myperiod last week. Is there any possibility that is messed up my cycle or just made me bleed?

I should also add that I've been off my topical regimen for the past 4-6 weeks and only use on an "as needed" basis which is no more than once or twice a week. The Rezamid or Sulfaced if I think a pimple is forming; the Clindamycin for certain irritations; and the Metrogel if things become a little red or inflamed. All the preceeding very minor compared to several months ago. My chest is completely better. Hope your doing well on your end.

while having sex last night i noticed that it was painful and i was bleeding (it wasn't my first time) i think there's been a rip between my vagina and my anus. it's still bleeding until today. what cani do about it??? will it heal on its own? i need help! thanks!!

i have been sexually active since i was 15 i have slept with 3 people one being my boyfriend (now) of 1yr.. i am on the birth control pill i have been for since i was 16. In about september/ October of 2006 it started to hurt after sex, My vaginal lips woud get swollen and quite tender, and a bit red, we used to have sex once a day tho this changed to twice a week.. I skipped my period for 2 months in november and december.

When im on my period i expect myself to have that normal odor of bl***. but what does it mean if im not on my period and i can constantly "smell" myself as if i were on my period. It is a really offensive odor and not normal for my vigina to smell this way all the time. Is there anything i can do?
